Hey Mtnbud... this horse died before you mounted it, time to stop whipping it. 🤣

Nope. Didn't miss your point one iota. I really don't see a battery or bike mfg being overly concerned with this specific issue, as I have already stated, the market for micro pumps is robust. Is the 32-70gms that an 18650/21700 weighs going to bust the bank? If a sh!t ton of riders were...

The 48v motors you want are simply not available in a size that would make this feasible. 12v is the go to for size, torque & speed. You would need an additional DC/DC step down converter to make it work SAFELY. Why reinvent the wheel when the available options for current mini pumps is vast...

Same here. Trail etiquette is something that needs to be shared & shared. If we are to be the example to the rest of trail users, then let's make it a good example. Dismount from horses, slow & give ample time for others to react to your hail & approach, help others with technical or mechanical...

I use TPU tubes now, so I stopped packing my CO2 in favor of the Fanttik X10. The unit isn't much larger than a CO2 kit with 2 refills. I find it extra handy to use on my front sus. The noise really isn't a bother for the 60sec it's saving my a$$ from a long, hard walk out. If you use a phone or...

Try the Fanttik X10. Much smaller & lightweight. I carry one on each bike with a spare TPU for emergencies. Works great! Two years of use & it works like new. I'm in varied terrain and tend to adjust the air in my tires for it. Pumping back up is just a few seconds & I'm back on the trails.

You certainly shouldn't be classified "OCD" by any stretch of the imagination. I've been fitting bikes to bodies since the 80's & nearly all opt for the smaller mtb frame when in this dilemma. You'll normally get shorter chain stays & the bike will be a bit lighter for a more lively feel. Now...

Experience & talent definitely are what gets you down the trail safely, yet, if you are just too inexperienced, out of shape or have a physical limitation, you can choose the power plant to suit your abilities or, gawd forbid, your needs.

Since the general consensus is to go to a bike shop to be "fit" for your frame size, I'd start there. I'm 6ft & 81 kilos with a very long torso. I have issues with frames that fit correctly & comfortably, so, because I enjoy shorter chain stays & a tighter cockpit, I opt for a slightly smaller...

A better motor or up level components make AVAILABLE the the OPPORTUNITY for improved performance, yet, without the physical/mental ABILITIES & AGILITY to accompany said performance increases, you could find yourself in a world of hurt & troubles. If one hasn't PROGRESSED past beginner status on...

Abridged: British rockers... (the) Who's music we love!

Looks like a typical American five-gallon hat. If you decide don it, that would be US laughing, to be clear. 🤣

You must not watch much Brit TV, because it is chocked FULL of cheeky humor that makes one think...oh, never mind. 😉

Tyre'd

I hated mudguards & thought they looked ridiculous for most of my pedaling life... until I took a stone to the eye. Bad juju. Now I sport a set of SKS clip on guards. (& a bulletproof set of shooting glasses) On in a sec, off in the same, sans the expensive visit to the eye doctor. Tires...

Hey all, I've noted a few posters commenting on battery capacity, more specifically, individual 21700 cell capacity rated @ 6500ma. As of this posting I personally have not heard of or sourced 21700 cells with a rated capacity of over 6000ma. I have thousands of cells in stock, of most portable...

You & I & my wife share the same opinion of driving drunk. It sounds like you have run the 'bad back gauntlet' with mixed successes. Stay on that saddle & it will keep you young! 😉

Back issues are bloody hell, my bike brother! I received a back fusion about 15yrs ago, fixed me right up. Unfortunately, a drunk hit me 3yrs ago, requiring more back surgery to try & repair a disc, the nerve however, cannot be repaired. I can't feel my right leg from the knee down with a 25%...

Sean, I'm not from the UK, but I've heard a few mentions of Bikmo Insurance with decent reviews. It sounds like they are flexible with their accessories add ons. Additionally, I'm in hopes the other issues won't be troublesome for very long. There is nothing like pedaling on two wheels to leave...

Hiya Sophie 777, I just wanted to put my two cents in on the mention of TPU tubes... they are the BOMB! No more need for messy sealant or topping off, super lightweight-reducing spinning weight is vital & more puncture resistant than my old, heavy butyl tubes. I beat the hell out of these...
